Commitments came from a diverse group of public and private pension funds and insurance companies based in the U.S. and Europe. AEW says that 100% of the institutional investors in its predecessor fund, AEW Value Investors Asia II, made capital commitments to VIA III.

VIA III is set to continue AEW’s focus on the acquisition of assets in key gateway cities across the Asia Pacific region, principally Hong Kong, Singapore, Seoul, Shanghai and Sydney, as well as Beijing and Melbourne.
